Venue

The City of Olomouc

Olomouc, in the centre of Europe, is one of the most
important cities in the Czech Republic. Due to its rich history,
time-honoured university, culture and crafts traditions, but above all
its central location in Moravia, Olomouc has always been an attractive
location for tourists, merchants, and business people.

Palacky University

Palacky University
is, after Charles University, the oldest university in the Czech Republic.
It was re-established in 1946,
following with the tradition of the old Olomouc university, which
was established in 1573 and closed in 1860. Palacky University consists
of the following seven faculties: The Faculty of Science,
The Philosophical Faculty, The Faculty of Medicine, The Faculty of Law,
St. Cyril and Methodius Faculty of Theology, The Pedagogical Faculty and
The Faculty of Physical Culture.

The conference will be held in the
Art Centre
of Palacky University, the recently renovated Baroque building of the
former Jesuit College, which is located in the campus near the historical
centre of the city. The presentations will take place in the Movie
hall (Filmovy sal), which is used for multimedia presentations,
videoprojections and movie projections.

The building of Art Centre is located in the halfway of the street
“Univerzitni”, house number 3. From the square (and the tram station)
“Nam. Republiky” you can get there (see the map picture aside) by going upwards the
street “Denisova” towards the city centre, passing by The
Church Of The Virgin Mary Of The Snow (Kostel Panny Marie Snezne),
slipping through the ess passage and heading slightly left uphill a narrow street, which is exactly the “Univerzitni”
street. After about a 100 meters you reach the main entrance door of
Art Centre on your left side. There will be a conference flyer on the door.

Inside the building there will be posters with arrows guiding you
directly to the conference room (Movie hall) at the 3rd floor (attic).
